Album: B-Day
Label: Columbia
Director: Matthew Rolston
This second version of the music video for the song “Listen”, from the “Dreamgirls” soundtrack as well as Beyonce’s second album titled “B-Day”, doesn’t improve upon on the original version in anyway whatsoever. I don’t quite know what the reason is …

The song ‘Along Came Jones’ by Ray Stevens is a classic type of song. It seems to be modeled after an old western movie where the bad villain takes a hostage and is foiled by a hero. The hero typically saves the hostage and is able put …

A song sang by Westlife, but in my opinion, most likely to have been wrote by their manager, at least he was their manager at the time, Ronan Keating.
The reason why I suggest it was put together by Ronan is the lyrics. This is without doubt a love song, …

The liner notes are essentially just the lyrics, but it is pretty thick considering that there are 16 songs on the CD. I do wish they were easier to read. Give me old fashioned LP records when you didn’t need a magnifying glass to read lyrics.
Treat Her …

Deathlike Silence is a metal band from Finland, usually referred to as “gravedigger metal.” I, however, prefer to call them “horror metal” as their lyrics tend to be horror-based, much like the lyrics of the old-school horror punk band, the Misfits.

Overview —“ Surfing With The Alien, the second album released by Joe Satriani, is another of Satriani’s albums to be completely instrumental and driven primarily by his guitar work. One thing that I always liked about Satriani is that he wasn’t really one of the shredders who just played …
